I bought these as an alternative to my UE-11 pro's. Truth be told, my expectations weren't very high. After owning two sets of custom iem's and two universal iem's, I wasn't expecting to be floored to say the least. The first day I used them, they were overly bright. I was planning on returning them, but decided to keep them for a week and decide then. Over the course of a few days the treble lost its shrillness, and the bass came into its own. I was worried that they would become muddy over time, but they have settled very nicely. I am very content with my purchase, and would recomend these to anyone who wants a great set of headphones without spending more than thier ipod.
